Drank an SR-71 from Toppling Goliath the other day. It was good, but no where near worth trading what takes to get one. That's all.

Jerry Blevins was sooo good against lefties last year. ~1.50 FIP

Baseball beer neuroscience interlude?

How would you tell a league you have just joined to stop sending you the most BS of offers?
Eno Sarris
12:40
Make good offers yourself and swat em off? It won't go over well to yell at a new league.

How many baseball players have you seen bottomless?
Eno Sarris
12:41
... wanted to say many, but not that many. I'm in there during mostly mixed company, in a private moment that's actually fairly public.

Mets OF is full.  Any chance they deal Lageres for a Kolton Wong style 2B?  Not super flashy, but decent.  Fits the whole 'pay for players just above replacement level' thing they've got going on
Eno Sarris
12:42
Needs to get his bat back closer to league average to have much trade value.
Doug
12:43
Which is more likely: Albert Pujols has a strong bounceback or Shohei Ohtani is an above average MLB hitter?
Eno Sarris
12:43
I'll take the young one.
Pujols looked like Bobby Cox rounding the bases at times.

Anything you like from Daniel Norris?
Eno Sarris
12:44
fastball velocity and all three of his secondaries. what I don't like? command, sequencing, fastball movement. first two seem like he could alter them and still be decent.

I've got the opportunity to keep Matt "September Reign" Olson at $10 this year in a 5x5 standard mixed league. Worth it?  WWED?
Eno Sarris
12:45
Yeah, he's going to hit 35+ homers. Not sure about the BA I guess.

thanks again for the chats.  you're rated #1 on my fangraphs power rankings.  sporer is #2 but the gap is pretty significant.
Eno Sarris
12:46
I'll be sure to pass that info along to Sporer lol.

I am starting to think that some beat writers have on the sly replaced themselves with bots that simply post "Player X is in contact with multiple teams" to Twitter every couple hours

You loved Cotton last year. 2 things - Thoughts on Cotton 2018 and who is your crush this year?
Eno Sarris
12:48
Hoping he throws the fastball high instead of middle and low, he had a very large gap between xWOBA and wOBA, and created a lot of soft contact. Still have some dollar love for Cotton. I know Zimm doens't agree with me, but Lucas Sims has good secondaries and I don't think his command and fastballs are all that bad.

Astros gonna cycle all their pitchers through the 10-day DL just like the Dodgers did last year, right?  In addition Keuchel, JV, Morton, McHugh, McCullers, (not to mention possible Cole), they also have Musgrove, Feliz, Martes, and Peacock who can all conceivably make starts.  Thinking I gotta bump innings projections for their SP accordingly
Eno Sarris
12:49
For most SP, but yeah.
DeeGee
12:49
Building off your mets bullpen comments--i could see at least one of Lugo, Gsellman, and Wheeler excelling in a "Peacock" role if they acquired some more SP depth
Eno Sarris
12:49
Yes, the first two in particular seem well suited for the role.

Have you ever blown your nose and not looked at it?
Eno Sarris
12:50
Of course, when you're like in day four and you're tired as hell of being sick and it's the middle of the night
Beni and the Betts
12:50
In all seriousness, is someone else gonna do the trade value list this year or will it just disappear?
Eno Sarris
12:50
There will be a trade value list!
Davoink Showerhandel

I recently traded for Brad Hand.  What are the odds I get 30 saves out of that?  Can you pry some insider info from DC on that?
Eno Sarris
12:51
Doubt you get 30 because I bet he's traded at deadline, but you might get great numbers and 20!
Daniel Castro

Still waiting on my writeup, my man! #LetCastroMash

What are the odds that the cold stove is due to teams holding their money for Kakie Bryan?

What does a DH's lack of defensive play mean for fWAR? Is it just "zeroed out?" Is there a penalty? Educate me, sir.
Eno Sarris
12:52
There's a tough penalty. It might be overly tough, though, because there's some evidence that DHing is a skill that not everyone has.
Greg
12:52
What is a realistic expectation for Aledmys Diaz this year? There's some speculation that he may begin the season in the minors for the Blue Jays
Eno Sarris
12:53
If he has options, that might be what they do. Try to get him back on a roll before brining him up.

Do you also love Jeffrey Hammonds jr?
